Questions/Issues Discussed:

TORAH FOR LIVING

Discussed by Terry Lowry
with Host of the What's UP Radio Program

Mark Lanier has a brand-new devotional book out: “Torah for Living: Daily Prayers, Wisdom, and Guidance.”

Listen as Terry Lowry shares today’s devotion from from from Exodus 19:11-12

Mark Lanier is a trial lawyer. In today’s devotion, he uses an illustration he often uses in the courtroom: anchoring. This is a concept that most people can learn quickly to remember details.

However, this can cause problems when learning about God and the Bible. We have an idea of who God should be and what He should do. When our plans do not align with His, we get confused – or even angry.

Mark writes: “God isn’t something we make in our image. He isn’t something we manufacture out of what seems right or sensible to us. God exists on His own.” This is what God was trying to explain to the Israelites on Mount Sinai…

JESUS ON THE RESURRECTION AND THE AFTERLIFE

Discussed by Pastor David Fleming
with Champion Forest Baptist Church (www.ChampionForest.org)

Day 4

What happens after death? Is the afterlife really real? Is the afterlife just a myth or fantasy? What does the Bible say? What do Biblical scholars believe?

Pastor David Fleming reminds us of Paul’s letter to the church at Corinth (Chapter 15). The people were very curious about the afterlife. Could Paul give them the answers they were searching for?

Questions/Issues Discussed:

How Does God Raise a Truly Dead Body? 1 Corinthians 15:35-38

How will God raise those who have been dead for centuries? What lessons can we learn from a seed regarding the resurrection?

What Should the Resurrection Mean to Us Now? 1 Corinthians 15:19-20; 41-42; and 54-58

Pastor Fleming asks this question: “Since Jesus was raised from the dead, shouldn’t we live as if we will live forever?”

BECAUSE Christ was raised, so shall we.

AS Christ was raised, so shall we.

Other Scripture References: John 6:40; Romans 8:11; and Philippians 3:20
